Though I think this meets the challenge as described, I don't find a personal sense of zen from it and so the score reflects that a bit. I also don't find the image particularly appealing, particularly because of the brownish hue to the sky. I love the play of the sun in the clouds, that portion is great. I also like the blade of sunlight on the water, though I wish the two trees framing it weren't impeding on that sliver of light as much. I think this could be a great example of a sunset, it has all of the elements, nice framing by the trees (if a little too encroaching), good dynamic between sun and cloud and suitably colorful water reflection but all of that is really hampered significantly for me by the blah-colored sky. I gave a 4.

Good job on framing the sun's reflection with the trees. Is the water a little crooked?

And what a lovely way to see it! :o) I love the way the branches are leaning towards each other just under the sun, nice colours and silhouette :o)

Yes, the use of light is good and carries the viewer into the image well...8
